The Shadow of What Was Lost by James IslingtonMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
This obvious Wheel of Time influenced starts in the aftermath of a war of control between magic (called essence) users and those without the ability and a mystery to find out what is going on behind the scenes. It took a bit to get into as it felt like a much less developed and more 2 dimensional WOT without all of the good world building, politics, and culture, and history.
Its not a fantastic book, but it definitely gives you a little bit of an homage to Eye of the World in a different kind of way if thats what you are looking for.
